The Eurobodalla Regional Botanic Gardens receives $370,000 from the Australian Government’s Biodiversity Fund

The Eurobodalla Regional Botanic Gardens has successfully attracted $370,000 from the Australian Government’s Biodiversity Fund following a collaborative application by the Friends of the Gardens and Eurobodalla Shire Council. The funding, which aims to provide support to organisations or groups establishing new carbon stores or better managing carbon stores of existing native habitat, will help the Eurobodalla Regional Botanic Gardens set up a Seed Bank facility which will collect and preserve native seed and use this to grow  local seedling stock.


Over the next three years, the $370,000 grant will enable the Eurobodalla Regional Botanic Gardens to:


Establish and equip a regional seed bank including a dedicated treatment and storage pod to house a diverse supply of local provenance seed stock; 


Employ a suitably qualified officer to set up the seed bank and train volunteers in quality control for a period of 3 years while the seed bank is getting established, and


Investigate the capacity of the Botanic Gardens and partner organisations to meet the increasing demand for local provenance stock.
